m attack as dr myers says foster is an fflgrate climax in fight to-day author against whom ouster campaign is waged denies deserting baptists the religious controversy started by the book of professor george burman foster of the i'niversity of Chicago on the func tion of religion m man's struggle for ex istence waged fiercely yesterday m chi cago and elsewhere bringing with it an attack on the university as a hotbed of infidelity the rev johnston myers who previously had accused professor foster of being a heretic and ft plagiarist in his sermon last night at the inimanurl baptist church called him an ingrate who after getting his education on baptist money and living during all his professional career on a salary paid by baptists has turned against his benefactors the struggle will come to a climax this morning at the meeting of the Chicago baptist ministers conference m steluway hall when dr myers and other leaders of the anti-foster crusade will endeavor to bring about his expulsion from the society in denver colo the university of chi cago was bitterly arraigned iv the pulpit of the first baptist church by the rev bedell yoslmrgh the pastor and a noted scholar cites agnostical reputation to-day this nominally baptist instltu 1 tion of learning is identified m the pop ular u.ind as being tiie most thoroughly ag nostic and infidel university m the united states said the minister i am sorry that this i's true irrem this institution flows an intermittent stream of ideas cre ating doubt concerning the verities of our christian faith in the mluds of the peo ple now it is foster again it is sliariuan but whoever it is it is always the same old story of attack ou the fundamental and saving truths of christianity the most undesirable citizen is not the gambler or the drunkard but the educated man who with polished sentences under mines our faith iv virtue and religion the remarkable tiling about the present..'blast ing of the : itoek of ages is t*nnt tls ideas which have for the most part heretofore been advocated by atheists infidels and free lovers are now proclaimed by certain college professors occupying chairs m insti tutions under the control of evangelical churches dr foster thinks he is a bap tist and that what he has written is orig inal neither of these things is true any unitarian could point that out foster replies to critic president harry pratt judson of the uni versity last night declined to make any re ply to the denver preacher's remarks pro fessor foster was wlll'ng to be quoted it is my conviction that there is no large free american university he stiid where there is so profound a religious spirit and such moral earnestness among the mem bers of the faculty as at the university of Chicago i also am sure that our great uni versities are misunderstood and misrepre sented by such statements as that by the denver clergyman irresponsible men with something of the spirit of the demogogue and charlatan talk flippantly and foolishly about matters of which they have no certain knowledge this denver minister verj probably knows nothing whatever about my writing one of the most appalling things about this age is the lack of conscientious care as to the truth before making public state ments dr myers said m his sermon 1 know i am telling one of professor foster's secrets and possibly there may be friends of his in the audience but here it is he went to a baptist school but he uever paid his tuition he was edu cated ou baptist money i do not care to take any notice of dr myers remarks said professor foster 1 shall simply repeat my statement that 1 am a loyal baptist through and through and am doing my level best to serve the baptist cause i am giving my life to the support of religion text as justification as a justification of his attack on fos ter dr myers preached from the text by paul 1 am set for v defense of the gospel when any man gets up and reflects upon the deity of jesus christ he will find me m a lighting attitude right away he said i consider it my province to stand for jesus and when any man asserts that jesus is not divine 1 shall resent that statement and it doesn't make a particle of difference how the university or Chicago may feel about it or how this church may feel about it if this church doesn't like niy denuncia tion of such a statement it doesn't need me the rev w a bartlett pastor of the first congregational church also attacked professor foster m his sermon one would think that when a man dis covered he was uutrue to the vows he took and could no longer walk with the thousands of faithful men of his denomina tion he would seek to drop out as quietly as possible said dr bartlett tribesmen slay 5,000 mont northwesterly province of persin im itavnged st

which it represented to have any idea at all as to what a democrat is the party as now represented at wash ington might as well pass out of existent for it has survived its usefulness and only serves

called him an ingrate who after getting his education on baptist money and living during all his professional career on a salary paid by baptists has turned against his benefactors the struggle will

harry pratt judson of the uni versity last night declined to make any re ply to the denver preacher's remarks pro fessor foster was wlll'ng to be quoted it is my conviction that there is no large free american university he stiid where there is so profound a religious spirit and such moral earnestness among the mem bers of the faculty as at the university of Chicago i also am sure that our great uni versities are misunderstood and misrepre sented by such statements as that by the denver clergyman irresponsible men with something of the spirit of the demogogue and charlatan talk flippantly and foolishly about matters of which they have no certain knowledge this denver minister verj probably knows nothing whatever about my writing one of the most appalling things about this age is the lack of conscientious care as to the truth before making public state ments dr myers said m his sermon 1 know i am telling one of professor foster's secrets and possibly there may be friends of his in the audience but here it is he went to a baptist school but he uever paid his tuition he was edu cated ou baptist money i do not care to take any notice of dr myers remarks said professor foster 1 shall simply repeat my statement that 1 am a loyal baptist through and through and am doing my level best to serve the baptist cause i am giving my life to the support of religion text as justification as a justification of his attack on fos ter dr myers preached from the text by paul 1 am set for v defense of the gospel when any man gets up and reflects upon the deity of jesus christ he will find me m a lighting attitude right away he said i consider it my province to stand for jesus and when any man asserts that jesus is not divine 1 shall resent that statement and it doesn't make a particle of difference how the university or Chicago may feel about it or how this church may feel about it if this church doesn't like niy denuncia tion of such a statement it doesn't need me the rev w a bartlett pastor of the first congregational church also attacked professor foster m his sermon one would think that when a man dis covered he was uutrue to the vows he took and could no longer walk

exhibition which is being made m the united states senate by seu ators calling themselves democrats and as suming to read out of the party all those who do not bear the mark of their ap proval is shameful in fact it is a very difficult matter iv these degenerate latter days for a real democrat of the old school and one who had confidence and belonged to the party for the sake of the principles which it represented to have any idea at all as to what a democrat is the party as now represented at wash ington might as well pass out of existent for it has survived its usefulness and only serves now to make a humiliating spectacle to make honest democrats hang their heads m shame i believe that men who think like we do would rather see the party die than to see it further prostituted to serve
